Please join the Pacific Islander Initiative’s Photovoice Exhibit, tomorrow Tuesday March 26th at the LDS Mulitcultural Center in San Bruno from 6-8:30PM. It is FREE & open to the public. This is part of the “Wellness is Awareness” Campaign to increase the number of Pacific Islanders in the County to enroll in health benefits.

Thank you to our Responsible Beverage Server Trainer, Sgt. Bob Del Torre, for presenting at our first training yesterday! Special shout out to Mink Bar & Lounge and @Plaza Liquor Store in Daly City, CA for participating and supporting our wonderful program. Missed out on the first one? Our next RBS training will be on April 23, 2013 (TUES) from 5pm-7pm. Contact us at ncppsanmateo@gmail.com to reserve your spot!

NCPP Staff attended the National Coalition Academy training as part of the requirements for our Drug-Free Communities grant to serve South San Francisco. The training was held at Camp Murray, near Dupont and the Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM) in Washington State. The training was provided by the Community Anti-Drug Coalitions of America (CADCA).

These photos illustrate some of the work we’ve been doing over the past week, which includes problem analysis, logic models, and coalition capacity building. Our CADCA trainers and cohort members are also part of the CADCA Workstation, which is used to provide technical assistance and share documents. We received many useful templates and tips, and will be sharing them with our coalition soon.
